Emma Watson Was 'Desperate' To Get Grint Kiss Over...

Emma Watson is set to break the heart of her Harry Potter co-star Rupert Grint - after admitting she was "desperate" to get the pair's on-screen kiss out of the way.

The Brit actress, who plays swot Hermione Granger in the wizard franchise, locks lips with Grint - Ron Weasley - in the forthcoming instalment, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.

But Watson admits the scene was anything but sexy - insisting she couldn't wait to get the smooch over and done with.

She tells British chatshow host Jonathan Ross, "I pounced on him, I was so desperate to get it over with."

The comment will come as a devastating blow to Grint, after he admitted he and fellow co-star Daniel Radcliffe have competed for Watson's affections since they started filming the movie aged 11.

He told FHM magazine, "Emma’s a pretty girl. Have Daniel or I ever hit on Emma? Well, she’s quite popular with the cast. As for who has the worst crush on her - me or Radcliffe - I’d rather not say."
